Folks - I've recently discovered that my cancer is much more advanced than I'd realised. Just out of a month in hospital for sepsis & plural effusion. Finally had my heart disease diagnosed, may have menieres to account for my vertigo, and can't see well. Be here when I can. Xxx

When I wrote BUT WHAT CAN I DO? I wanted to profile a Parliamentarian who represents the best of politics, to debunk the idea that they are “all the same,” “all in it for themselves” and all the other cynical stuff that gets said about MPs. This was well before @HarrietHarman 1/3

Britons paying 40% more for energy than in 2015. Price rises have far outstripped inflation with dual fuel bills costing on average £1,813 a year. Fuel poverty is a real concern too for so many people, they are paying a heavy price for Tory failure. theguardian.com/money/2019/dec…

When on the rear of the tandem, I tend to wear a flouncy dress and leggings aw are moderately slow, and I hope they'll give a girl space.

Roads quiet this morning so drivers went feral. I was booted for taking the lane; shortly afterwards a speeding car revved aggressively at a boy of maybe 12 or 13 crossing the road. @kentpolice7oaks - any prospect of enforcement? Or not giving a shit as usual?

@davidhaywood__ @CyclingEurope Are you not aware of the MEPs elected by you representing your interests and able to veto such things? Just asking genuinely, not trying to pick a fight.

If you did, why did you vote for #Brexit? How is your life going to change for the better post Brexit? Be specific, if you can. I’m genuinely intrigued...

@jackoozell I'd recommend noise cancelling headphones...

We should all be embarrassed that we live in a country that needs food Banks. We have institutionalised, and normalised hunger. We should all be fighting to end food banks, and to create a fairer, decent society wher none of us feel embarrassed.

1 in 4 Over 65s say they're prevented from leaving their home because of blocked pavements - let that sink in. Many people blaming the width of the roads. I blame the source. There's too many cars and they are too big. #PavementParking bbc.com/news/uk-politi…

If this is correct - and there is no reason to assume that @WeAreCyclingUK are wrong - this is ABSOLUTELY APPALLING.

Today, Tues 10th Sept is #WorldSuicidePreventionDay. I was diagnosed with depression when I was 15; I made my first attempt when I was 19. The 20 years that followed have mostly been a haze of drugs and alcohol; mistakes, friendships thrown away, self-disgust and shame. 1/2
